actually a small amount of unburnt fuel does pass thru into the manifold,the return pulse wave from the cones in the exhaust chamber help to push that back into the combustion chamber where it meets the fresh fuel being drawn in from the rotary valve,if we didnt have the pulse wave you would see some unburnt fuel dripping from the exhaust stinger and poor fuel economy as you would have to richen the engine up somewhat.
